Introduction of the Chocolate Industry

Chocolates had its beginning in the times of the Mayas and the Aztecs when they beat

cocoa into a pulp and made bitter frothy chocolate out of them. They first became popular in

Europe in a highly unrefined form. Then the Hershey Food Company was the first to bring out

chocolates in the currently popular solid form. The main ingredients of chocolate is cocoa grown

mainly on equatorial zones and of the consumers looks for variety he goes in for some of that

company’s own sugar milk solids and permitted emulsifiers. Cocoa constitutes nearly 40% of the

total raw material cost.

The following report studies the chocolate industry in India and in particular the position

of the chocolate brand - Cadbury. The brand name chosen is the umbrella brand as it was felt

that the corporate name is recognized as brand not so much its individual products. The study

focuses on the marketing and the advertising, employed by Cadbury in the context of the Indian

macro environment and industry structure. The advertising strategy is studied with respect to

Cadburys business and marketing objectives. The strategies adopted are then analyzed for each

product offering. Considering the strategies of Cadburys major competitor follows the analysis,

The chocolate industry in India works at different levels that include chocolate giants

like Cadbury's , Dairy Milk, etc, small chocolate manufacturers, chocolate retailers, chocolate

importers and people who make chocolates at home.

Diversification and innovation is the need of the hour and chocolatiers are exactly

doing that to increase their client-base.

The population of India presents multiple avenues for companies to foray into India.

"The regulatory environment, too, has become conducive for foreign players to operate in the

country. There is immense scope that the country presents to players in terms of hiring home

grown talent to grow business, given the educational boom. This clearly means that the three

main factors like demand for products, conducive regulations and customized talent are abundant

in India, which makes it inevitable for foreign players to ignore India

Malt- and chocolate-based drinks are often seen as relatively unsophisticated in

developed markets in the west, but in many countries, in particular in Latin America, they are big

business indeed, marketed mostly as an excellent source of nutrition in countries where food

quality is often poor. But improving sales in other countries will depend on finding a premium

positioning.

Global retail volume sales of both malted and chocolate-based hot drinks reached

956,702 tones in 2003, according to a recent report from market analysts Euro monitor, with

Latin America alone accounting for over one third of total sales.

Indeed, Latin America accounts for two of the top three markets for chocolate-based

drinks (Brazil and Mexico, the third being Spain), and manufacturers are increasingly focusing

their marketing efforts on young people in these countries, according to the report.

This goes hand-in-hand with the widespread introduction of value-added products in

these markets. In recent years, for example, the Mexican market saw the launch of a number of

chocolate-based powders in new packaging, formats and formulas - often with new flavors.

These products generally targeted consumers prepared to pay a premium, though some were

aimed at low-income segments of the population, according to Euro monitor.

Brazilian manufacturers also met consumer demand by offering premium chocolate-

based products, helped by the fact that Brazilian consumers are more aware of health issues than

many of their Latin American counterparts. Brazilian consumers often upgrade by purchasing

healthier chocolate-based products such as low-calorie and diabetic-friendly alternatives, Euro

monitor said, highlighting the 2003 launch of Toddy Light by PepsiCo as an example of this

trend.

Malt drinks, meanwhile, are most popular in India, which accounts for 22 per cent of the

world’s retail volume sales. They are traditionally consumed as milk substitutes there and

marketed as a nutritious drink, mainly consumed by the old, the young and the sick. Sales have

also been aided by improved retail and distribution in recent years, combined with a large child

and youth consumer base, the report said.

India also recorded the highest growth (53 per cent in US$ terms) during 1998-2003,

again spurred by consumers trading up to value-added products. In 2003, for example, Glaxo

Smith Kline re-launched Horlicks for Kids, specifically targeted at young children, as well as

launching Horlicks in three new flavors.

With its Horlicks brand (often seen as an old-fashioned drink in its home market in the

UK) Glaxo Smith Kline in fact accounts for 70 per cent of malt-based hot drinks, with India

alone contributing nearly 60 per cent of the company’s global sales of the product. Other major

players include Cadbury Schweppes and Nestlé. But if developing nations have a growing taste

for malt- and chocolate-based drinks, other more sophisticated markets have yet to catch on.

Indeed, the report shows that the performance of malt- and chocolate-based drinks in mature

western markets was characterized by of stagnation and decline during 1998-2003. The US, for

example, has seen a sharp decline in value sales of both malt- and chocolate-based drinks over

the past few years, mainly as these products largely remained outside the overarching consumer

trend for premium and healthy products. In fact, malt-based drinks have an almost negligible

presence in the US, with manufacturers largely failing to attract the important child and youth

consumer groups – a category more interested in soft drinks.

The performance of malt- and chocolate-based drinks in Western Europe was more

positive than that of the US, but nonetheless there was little in the way of growth during 1998-

2003. A relative lack of innovation and marketing activities, allied to demographic factors such

as falling birth rates, saw important western European markets such as Germany record modest

growth, according to Euro monitor.

The warmer winters experienced in Western Europe in recent years also contributed to

the lower demand for chocolate- and malt based drinks. The UK experienced sharp decline of 13

per cent in retail volume terms in malt-based drinks and only moderate growth in chocolate

drinks during 1998-2008.

Regulatory Bodies

1- ICCO

• The International Cocoa Organization (ICCO) is a global organization, composed of

both cocoa producing and cocoa consuming countries with a membership. Located

in London, ICCO was established in 1973 to put into effect the first International Cocoa

Agreement which was negotiated in Geneva at a United Nations International Cocoa

Conference. There have since been seven Agreements. The Seventh International Cocoa

Agreement was negotiated in Geneva in 2010 and came into force provisionally on 1

October 2012.

• On 2 November 2005, the total percentage of exporting countries which had acceded to

the Agreement surpassed 80%. Thus, the International Cocoa Agreement, 2001 entered

into force definitively for the first time in the 30 year history of the International Cocoa

Agreements. ICCO Member countries represent almost 85% of world cocoa production

and more than 60% of world cocoa consumption. All Members are represented in the

International Cocoa Council, the highest governing body of the ICCO.

• The two most important breakthroughs of the present International Cocoa Agreement

were the establishment of an explicit mandate on a Sustainable World Cocoa Economy

and the founding of the Consultative Board on the World Cocoa Economy.

• The Consultative Board consists of fourteen international experts in the cocoa sector, all

from the private sector (seven from cocoa producing Member countries and seven from

cocoa consuming Member countries).

• However, the Board, whose mandate is as extensive as that of the International Cocoa

Council and comprises all aspects of the world cocoa economy, only functions in an

advisory capacity, as all final decisions are taken by the International Cocoa Council.

• The Consultative Board was established in recognition of the importance of the private

sector in the world cocoa economy and of the increasingly important role that trade and

industry have been playing in ICCO.

• An FSSAI spokesperson indicated that the agency would seek to limit trans fats to two to

five percent of total fat in an average diet, in line with international standards.

• FSSAI is increasing its regulation and oversight of the processed foods sector, due to its

belief that increasing incomes have boosted Indian consumption of processed foods.

India Releases Draft Changes to Labeling Requirements

Page 47: Chocolate industry project report

47

• India’s Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MHFW) recently published a draft amendment

outlining new labeling requirements and additive limits for various food products. The draft rule

establishes a labeling requirement for every food product that contains a mixture of acesulfame

potassium and sucralose.

• The label must state that the food product contains acesulfame potassium and sucralose and that

it is not recommended for children. The label must also state that no sugar has been added to the

product, or if sugar has been added, the label must list the quantity (in grams per 100 grams) of

sugar added. Other provisos to the amendment include:

Any food containing polyols must bear a label stating: “Polyols may have a laxative effect.”

• Modified food starches (derivative starches) may be used in snacks up to a maximum

concentration of 5% by weight.

• Maximum levels are established for hydroxypropyl methyl celluose in snacks and other

products at 1% of total volume by weight.

• Maximum levels were also set for synthetic amorphous silicon dioxide in powder

flavorings at 2.0%.

• Good manufacturing practice (GMP) levels will be required of maltitol and maltitol syrup

in baked goods and other products.

Sugarless Gum Included on Brazil’s Proposed Retaliatory Tariffs List

1. Brazil has published a list of U.S. goods on which it is proposing to impose retaliatory

tariffs. This list includes sugarless gum (HS code 2106.90.50), and although specific

retaliation levels are not listed, the regulation indicates that tariffs could be up to 100%.

2. Brazil was given the right to retaliate earlier this year by the World Trade Organization

due to reported unfair U.S. subsidies for cotton, but has not indicated if and when they

will proceed with imposing such retaliatory tariffs. The government of Brazil has made it

clear that they would prefer to resolve this dispute within the context of the Doha round.

3. Brazil is accepting comments until November 30.

South Korea Proposes Zero Tolerance for Salmonella in Cocoa Products and Chocolate

• The Korea Food and Drug Administration has notified the World Trade Organization

of a proposed amendment to the country’s Standards and Specifications for food that

would impose a zero tolerance level for salmonella in cocoa products and chocolates

Issues Affecting Chocolate Industry

Child Labor

1. Slave traders are trafficking boys ranging from the age of 12 to 16 from their home

countries and are selling them to cocoa farmers in Cote d'Ivoire.

2. They work on small farms across the country, harvesting the cocoa beans day and night,

under inhumane conditions.

3. Most of the boys come from neighboring Mali, where agents hang around bus stations

looking for children that are alone or are begging for food.

4. They lure the kids to travel to Cote d'Ivoire with them, and then the traffickers sell the

children to farmers in need of cheap labor

5. The horrendous conditions under which children must toil on the cocoa farms of the Cote

d'Ivoire are even more jarring when the facts are juxtaposed with the idea that much of this cocoa

Page 49: Chocolate industry project report

49

will ultimately end upproducing something that most people associate with happiness and

pleasure: chocolate.

6 . The connection serves to illustrate that the existence of misery in one part of the world and

joy in another part are no longer divorced as nations are connected together in a globalized web

of trade.

7 . Thus, the pleasure that people from various nations around the world are deriving from these

chocolate confections could possibly be at the expense of child slaves in Africa.

8 . The problem of child slavery then is not simply a faraway abstraction with no immediate

implications for anybody else except those who are directly affected, but rather it is an issue that

everybody around the world should be concerned about and demand action to eradicate.

Environmental Issues

Deforestation

Page 50: Chocolate industry project report

50

1. Cocoa farming also contributes to rainforest and old growth forest deforestation.By

clearing land in these forests, farmers decrease the biodiversity and interactions between

the organisms that naturally live in this area.

2. Many wildlife habitats are destroyed and the plant species diversity is drastically

reduced. Nutrients begin to leach out of the soil due to poor irrigation and inadequate soil

protection,which can increase the erosion of the soil.

3. The more intense the farming practices are, the more damaging they are to

the ecosystem. Cocoa farming becomes a destructive circle as farmers wear out the soils

and cut further into the forest to obtain fresh land. All of these processes stress the Cacao

trees and result in lower yields, giving the opposite effect to what the farmers expect from

these practices.

4. Some of the forests in Ghana and other Cocoa producing countries have been declared

protected by the government after observing the Tropical Rainforest destruction.

However, with a shortage of fresh land to plant Cacao trees, some farmers are beginning

to illegally cut down parts of these protected forests. It has been estimated that

approximately 50% of these protected forests have been cut down.

Full sun cocoa

1. Cocoa farms are generally small, family owned and operated businesses. There are

approximately 4.5 million cocoa farms around the world. The majority of cocoa farms are

located in Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana. In Ghana, Cocoa contributes 64% of all exports.

Traditional cocoa farms are planted in the shade among other crops and trees. They are

especially found in the Tropical rainforest areas. Farming cocoa beans is a long process

with many factors that can affect the farm's yearly output.

2. Farms' cocoa crop outputs struggle to match the increasing demand for chocolate. It is

estimated that the demand for chocolate will increase twofold by the year 2050.

3. Farmers have shifted towards unsustainable, less environmentally conscious practices to

meet these demands.

Page 51: Chocolate industry project report

51

4. Some farmers have shifted their crops out of the shade and into direct sunlight. This

practice yields a greater quantity in a short period and at lower quality. Cacao trees with

no shade tend to accumulate more weeds as well as be more susceptible to diseases such

as Witches Broom and Frosty Pod Rot. If the crops begin to accumulate pests, farmers

use large amounts of herbicides to rid the crops of these pests.The herbicides used

damage the land and the health of the sprayers applying the herbicide. Excessive spraying

of pesticides can also cause the weeds and insects to build up a resistance which will

eventually create more harm to the crops

Solutions By Governments

Education

1. Through groups and programs such as the World Cocoa Foundation, Rainforest Alliance,

Roundtable for a Sustainable Cocoa Economy, and activities of regional NGOs like

Conservation Alliance, IITA and Solid aridad cocoa farming can return to its sustainable

roots through education programs and help in finding ecologically and economically

sound resources to further their farming.

2. As a last resort, some programs will help farmers to access pest control products such

as biocides as an alternative to the harmful pesticides being used. Other programs

promote proper irrigation, composting, suitable soil management, and intercropping,

meaning planting other trees and fruit crops in the surrounding land of the Cacao trees.

3. Some farmers will burn old, fermented pods and place them back on the soil as a form of

composting and fertilizer.[To stop the process of deforestation, it is suggested that

farmers replant on their current land while using the practices

Shade cacao

1. It has been suggested that Cocoa farmers go back to the original and natural ways of

farming, by planting within the natural tree-cover and without cutting down existing

trees. When an area has already been clear cut another possibility exists. Planting trees,

especially fruit trees around and within the plantation, helps with growth of Cacao

plants.

Page 52: Chocolate industry project report

52

2. These trees can provide shade to the Cacao plants and be a source of

oxygen replenishment to the environment. If the shade trees are fruit-bearing, this can

also provide additional income to the farmer.

3. Shade trees return organic matter to the soil through falling leaf litter and decaying

branches. The shade provided by these trees also helps to keep soil moist in dry seasons

which results in less damaging irrigation practices. Shade trees will raise the amount of

infiltration and slow erosion of the soil.

4. Since shade inhibits the growth of weeds, farmers are able to use less or perhaps no

pesticides which can decrease the occurrences of Witches Broom in these crops. Cacao

plants that grow in the shade provide the environment with more biodiversity, allowing

natural populations and habitats to flourish. Finally, shade can be extremely helpful in

keeping and lengthening the productivity of old growth Cacao plants.

Policies affecting Players in the industry

Nestle

• Monetary policies have become the central constituent of the stabilization

strategy of different countries because it is faster and more flexible than

fiscal policy. In addition, monetary policy is secluded from political

demands. There are three main monetary tools by which it can control and

influence the money creating abilities of the commercial banking system.

They are the open market operations, reserve ratio and discount rate.

• These tools influence the money supply and affect macroeconomic factors.

These tools are important as it strikes a balance between economic growth,

low inflation, and a reasonable rate of unemployment.

Page 68: Chocolate industry project report

68

• The amount of money circulating in the economy can be adjusted through open-market

operations, specifically with selling and acquiring government securities bonds in the

bond market.

• The federal funds rate dictates the interest charge at which commercial banks loan

balances at the Federal Reserve to other reservoir organization overnight. If the supply of

money is more than the production of goods, the government will increase interest rates

and bring money supply downward to what it deems to be the “equilibrium” level.

Likewise, if the government deems that economic expansion is more than the money

supply, which leads to deflation, interest rates are then lessened.

• The implication of a lower interest rate is that it will be cheaper for individuals to obtain

loans in new business ventures or procure goods and services. This also means dejecting

them from keeping their money in a bank since its interest is much lower. (NematNejad,

2007).

• Nestle maximizes these resources and utilizes it to engage in new investments and

develop their research project as they geared on ensuring quality products for their

consumers.

EXIM Policy changes: Sweet music to FMCG ears

• FAST moving consumer goods (FMCG) have been among the key target areas for the

phase-out of quantitative restrictions (QRs) over the past couple of years.

• After shifting a range of FMCG products such as toilet soaps, jams, fruit juices, jellies,

biscuits and shaving products to the open general licence (OGL) last year, the Exim

Policy for 2000 has shifted a few more to the OGL list.

• Instant tea, coffee substitutes, milk and malted foods for infants, wheat flour, maize flour

and flours of other cereals, common salt, potato chips and napkin stock are some of the

items. For importers, this could bring cost savings to the extent of the special import

licence (SIL) premium earlier payable.

• Currently, each of these items carry fairly stiff customs tariffs, which could add to the

cost of the imported product.

• Tea and coffee carry a basic customs duty of 15 per cent, milk and malted infant foods 15

per cent, wheat flour and other cereal-derived flours 35 per cent, salt 25 per cent, potato

chips 15 per cent and napkin stock 35 per cent.

• But though FMCG products have typically been taxed at the peak customs duty rate in

the past, this has not deterred companies or importer-traders from importing and selling

strong overseas brands in domestic markets.

• Pepsi Foods' Tropicana fruit juices, Indian Shaving Products' Gillette Series Shaving

Products, Heinz's Tomato Ketchup, Nestle's After-Eight mint chocolates and McVities

biscuits are some of the international brands that have made a successful Indian deb ut

over the past couple of years.

• These brands started out with a premium pricing strategy and successively reduced

selling prices, in order to gain product acceptance.

• Multinationals with an Indian presence have benefited the most from free imports of

FMCG products. Relaxations of restrictions have enabled them to test-market strong

Page 71: Chocolate industry project report

71

international brands in the domestic markets, without investing in new manufacturing

facilities in India. This has speeded up the access that the Indian arms enjoy to the

parent's product portfolio.

• Since these products typically cater to the premium segment, they have helped add

volumes and margins in the slow-growing domestic FMCG market.

• Indian Shaving Products has derived a substantial portion of its revenues in recent times

from importing and trading in the higher-end products of its parent, Gillette, while Nestle

India has used the freer import regime to broadbase the premium range in its chocolate

portfolio.

• On this count, companies such as Tata Tea _ after its recent acquisition of Tetley _

Procter & Gamble, Nestle India and ITC Agro-Tech appear to be likely to benefit from

the latest Exim Policy. The shifting of instant tea to the OGL could make it cheaper for

Tata Tea to import the product from the Tetley stables and launch it in India. The same

would be the case for Procter & Gamble, which imports napkin and tissue stock and

potato chips.

• P&G has already launched its international Pringles range in the Indian market and the

shifting of this product to the OGL would reduce the cost of importing it.

• ITC Agro-Tech, which recently entered the Indian branded staples market with the

launch of packaged `atta', should find it easier now to source part of its input

requirements from its parent, ConAgra.

Cadbury merged with J. S. Fry & Sons in 1919, and Schweppes in 1969. Cadbury was a

constant constituent of the FTSE 100 from the index's 1984 inception until the company

was bought by Kraft Foods in 2010

Cadbury merged with drinks company Schweppes to form Cadbury Schweppes in 1969.

In 1978 the company acquired Peter Paul, the third largest chocolate manufacturer in the

United States for $58 million

In 1986, Cadbury Schweppes sold its Beverages and Foods division to a management

buyout known as Premier Brands for £97 million.

In March 2007, it was revealed that Cadbury Schweppes was planning to split its

business into two separate entities: one focusing on its main chocolate and confectionery

market; the other on its US drinks business

In 2003, Cadbury dropped the 's' from its name and renamed the brand to Cadbury. The

reason behind this change was because the company found that it was a much more

suited, rounded name than the previous "Cadbury's”

On 7 September 2009 Kraft Foods made a £10.2 billion (US$16.2 billion) indicative

takeover bid for Cadbury.

On 19 January 2010, it was announced that Cadbury and Kraft Foods had reached a deal

and that Kraft would purchase Cadbury for £8.40 per share, valuing Cadbury at £11.5bn

(US$18.9bn).
